Leave the crowds behind and find the "Real Mekong" in the shaded coconut groves and hidden canals of Ben Tre.
Tour Overview
This is Tiim Travel’s signature "Off-the-beaten-path" Mekong experience. Ben Tre remains much more authentic than neighboring provinces. This private tour features a 5km cycling journey through narrow village paths, visits to local brick kilns, and a private boat ride through canals that are virtually untouched by mass tourism.

Why Book This Tour?
